What if Flounder asked King Triton to turn him into a human so that he could secretly protect Ariel? What if he falls in love with Ariel? And what does Prince Eric have to say about all of this? You'll find out soon in this awesome story!

A/N: Okay, let me level
with all of you. This chapter was extremely difficult to write due to
severe writer's block so please excuse it's severe crappiness. As
everyone knows this is the last chapter and I'd like to dedicate it
to my good friend and loyal reviewer, Emma, a.k.a, GladeSista's.
Let us now commence with the chapter.

Disclaimer: Roses are
red, violets are blue. I don't own this movie and neither do you.

Epilogue.

It was the day of the
wedding and mermen and fish alike were filled with nervous
excitement.

Flounder and Ariel were
getting married which would make them Prince Flounder and Princess
Ariel.

Many people wondered if
such a small fish could be wedded to a Mermaid, but the old, wise
ones knew that if two people loved each other species didn't
matter.

The same respects had
also applied with Ariel and Eric they recalled with wide grins.

Everything was perfect.
Everyone was present, the music was playing, and the dessert table
was set with the tall wedding cake in the center. But one vital thing
was still missing.

The bride to be!

Flounder waited at the
alter, fear and worry filling his entire being.

Where was she? How
could she be late on the most important day of both their lives?

Wait. This was Ariel
he was thinking of after all. The curious mergirl was prone to all
sorts of mischief. He'd be lucky if she came at all.

With a long suffering
sigh the poor guppy finally decided to search for the missing bride.
After all there couldn't be a wedding without her.

Ruby waves of hair
drifted everywhere as the distracted mermaid glided through the clear
water blissfully unaware of the disturbance her absence had caused
for the people at the ceremony.

Her attention was
focused on other things at the moment.

"I wonder what I
should give him? Oh! I wonder what he'll give me! Hehe. I wish I'd
thought to look for a wedding present earlier but I'll just see
what I can find now."

Pondering the things
that her small friend liked, her wandering eyes spotted something of
interest.

The ceremonial music
played the song "Here comes the bride" as Ariel waltzed down the
isle with her father by her side.

King Triton looked very
proud and happy that his youngest daughter was about to get married.
He beamed at her, his dark blue eyes filled with joy, and in return
she gave him a kiss on the cheek, her own cerulean orbs sparkling
with utter delight.

Upon reaching the alter
she stood beside her husband-to-be and waited for the good part to
began.

After the long vows it
was finally time to get to the "I do's."

"Do you Ariel, take
this guppy to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold,
for better or worse, through sickness and health, for richer or
poorer, as long as you both shall live?"

Without hesitating the
giddy mermaid blurted out the two words that would give her so much
joy for years to come,

"I do!"

With a nod he turned to
a very rattled Flounder.

"And do you Flounder,
take this young princess to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and
to hold, for better or worse, through sickness and health, for richer
or poorer, as long as you both shall live?"

Shaking profusely, the
poor fish began to stammer nervously.

"I…I-uh. I…"

Everyone's eyes were
on him making him even more uneasy.

"I…err…I…"

He glanced helplessly
at Ariel and to his relief she gave him a kind smile and mouthed "Go
on."

Confidence restored, he
tried again.

This time there was no
stutter in his words.

"I do."

The priest nodded and
finished up with,

"You may kiss the
bride."

Ariel leaned forward
but hesitated when she saw the dark blush coating his cheeks.

"Are you okay?"

She asked softly,
concern obvious in her tone.

"Y-yeah."

Forcing his bashfulness
away, he pressed his lips gently to hers and she deepened the kiss.

Instantly happy cries
filled the air and shouts of "Aww." "Isn't that adorable?"
and "They're perfect for each other." Were heard throughout the
room.

The couple parted and
this time both faces were stained red with embarrassment.

"Everyone please
proceed to the refreshment table. The ceremony is now over."

The people easily
followed the minister's command and hurried to where the food was.

Four people however,
didn't.

"Finally my little
girl has gotten married. I'm so happy for you Ariel."

"Aww thanks daddy."

Father and daughter
hugged tightly while Sebastian and Flounder observed the two with
fond expressions.

"I can't believe we
just got married. I'm so happy I could cry."

Sebastian chuckled with
a look of contentment on his face, responding to the small fish's
words with the air of a friend who wanted to see his buddy happy.

"Me too mon. I never
thought you guys would ever be more than friends. And I'm so glad
that both of you ended up together."

"So am I."

And he was. They both
were. Though neither had ever expected to become lovers, they had
always loved each other very much. And somewhere deep in their hearts
they knew this had been bound to happen.

Fate had seen that
everything happened the way it was supposed to. And now the two
people who were truly meant to be together could finally be happy.

For many years to come
the couple would spend every day with each other having fun and going
on many adventures together.

And when they became
King and Queen, they would rule the seas with patience and love,
bringing harmony to the ocean.

And you know what else?
They would live happily ever after for the rest of their days.

A/N: Finally it's
over. Really, truly OVER! Yippee! – Throws confetti in the air –
I'm so happy this is finally finished and done with. I hope
everyone loved it because there will certainly not be a sequel. It
was too darn hard to write this one story and I don't think I could
bear writing another. But you all are probably curious about what
gift Ariel got Flounder aren't you? Sadly I have no idea and so
won't be able to fit that in anywhere. I really am sorry about
that. Anyway tell me what you think but please don't flame unless
you have a really good reason or else it will be ignored. Thank you.
